Hi, mark -

This happened to me about three weeks ago. Lost my TCP-
IP stack and almost all my services were set to manual.
For me it wasn't a virus, but a piece of spyware I
removed that hosed my machine.

Here's what I did -

First, I downloaded WinsockXPfix from

http://www.spychecker.com/program/winsockxpfix.html

and ran it - that repaired my TCP-IP stack when netsh
wouldn't.

Then, I had my wife's PC to compare services and got the
machine running that way - if you don't have another
Windows XP machine available, you can find a list of
default service settings at

Good luck!
